We purchased a Hyundai Kona 2019 back in February 2019. It had such an annoying ticking sound and still does. Hyundai says that these cars all have that, and it is not a problem. Since May, probably before, we noticed it smelled like it was burning. Checked oil, after having it changed 2000 miles ago, and it was 2 quarts low. Put a quart in, and took it up to dealership and they changed oil and said bring back every 1000 miles to check how much it is actually using. After 3 months, it is using 1 quart per month.
They will do nothing because Hyundai deems this as being normal usage of oil. They said every new/old car burns that much oil per month. So no one will do anything about this problem. Will NEVER recommend or purchase another Hyundai. Will never frequent the dealership either. To say that 1 quart of oil every 1000 miles is acceptable, is crazy. If you go the whole 3760 per oil change, you would be without any oil in car by the time you get the oil change. I would say steer clear of all Hyundai, they are cheaper for a reason, and not worth it in the end game you going to be without a car.
